I'used the Heritage Softail above for some of my longer road trips around NSW and Qld. as it has more luggage space and the seating is more comfortable when I option up.

The Fatboy is a 2003 model with an 88 cubic inch engine. This model year was prior to the six speed transmissions being introduced however I had a Baker 6 speed gearbox fitted after I bought it in 2013. The Fatboy had only travelled 5000 kilometres when I acquired it.

The Softail Standard has been heavily customised as many are. It's a nice ride.

I've been riding motorcycles on and off since the mid-seventies. A motorcycle was my first mode of transport after leaving school and getting a job at a TV repair shop 25 kilometres from home. The first bike was a Suzuki with a 120cc engine. The novelty of riding everyday soon wore off after my first Winter of riding to and from work in all kinds of weather!These days I'm a member of HOG International as well as the local Newcastle Chapter.
